Factors characterizing intimate partner violence (IPV) against women vary according to setting and must be understood in localized environments if effective interventions are to be identified. This 2009-2010 exploratory study in Maun, Botswana, used semistructured interviews to elicit information from 469 women about their experiences with IPV. Characteristics found to be important included suicide attempts, childhood exposure to familial violence, access to and control over certain tangible assets, number of children, household location and monthly income, controlling behavior by a partner, and alcohol consumption. Controlling behavior by a partner was the single greatest predictor of physical or psychological IPV.
针对女性的亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)的特征因素因环境而异,如果要确定有效的干预措施,就必须在当地环境中加以理解。这项2009 - 2010年在博茨瓦纳马翁进行的探索性研究,采用半结构化访谈从469名女性那里获取她们遭受IPV的经历信息。发现重要的特征包括自杀未遂、童年时期遭受家庭暴力、对某些有形资产的获取和控制、子女数量、家庭住址和月收入、伴侣的控制行为以及饮酒情况。伴侣的控制行为是身体或心理IPV的最主要预测因素。
